Spite review from Joe Stone & Matthew Dooley A beautifully ugly comic soaked in British spite

I've made a new book with the very funny and clever Matthew Dooley, the fourth in our Split series where we both do 50% of it and slap it together. It will be available at @thoughtbubbleuk.bsky.social in the Bubbleboy Hall on table F12, or you can pre-order it here: splitcomic.bigcartel.com

That said, there are also some copies in stock at @goshcomics.bsky.social if you're in London!

Five Months on Earth — JOE STONE A deeply personal autobiographical story about suffering through a mental health crisis, and a tribute to the cat who helped me regain my balance. “A brave, heart-rending book, which discusses big em...

So goooooood!

It’s given me a pretty good foundation in organising and putting together that sort of book for sure, but I’ve been thinking about something more regular and more highly curated. Not a million miles off what Dirty Rotten Comix were doing back in the day.

I’ve been thinking about setting up something not a million miles off this…

There are some excellent creators involved in this, and comics anthologies are essential to the small press scene and a great way to discover new favourites. Back it if you are able.

I meant to come and find you and pick up the previous volumes at Thought Bubble but never got a chance in the end. Backed this to get all three volumes.

Yep, when establishments group the Beano and X-men with Persepolis and Cages it’s no wonder the public don’t take comics seriously. Not to say Beano and X-Men don’t have merits of their own, but the audiences are so vastly different.

If you missed out on getting a copy of me and Matthew Dooley's new comic SPORT at Thought Bubble then fear not, it's now available to buy online. The third book in this format we've done, it's been described as "another hit" and "witty". Buy it now from splitcomic.bigcartel.com

Saw this at the cinema a few weeks back. Curious to know your thoughts.

I think about this a lot. I’ve long thought it starts with the way they are sold. In mainstream bookshops ‘comics’ are treated as one single genre which is an instant turnoff for some people, they should be spread throughout the shop: Maus in the history section, Heartstopper in Romance, etc

Nice one, I’ll get myself signed up!

Oooh, is this like Letterboxd for music? I need some new things to listen to.

Ah ace! Will no doubt swing by and see you.

TALL TALES & SHORT STORIES: New WIP Comics Anthologies Two brand new, thematically-linked anthologies of comics by a UK-based community of creators.

Hello. I've got a two page comics in new WIP Comics anthology, which is currently on Kickstarter. A lot of people have put a lot of effort into these books, so please consider backing them and sharing the campaign around with any other comic-minded people. www.kickstarter.com/projects/joe...

Five alarms, each increasingly closer together. Starting about 20 mins apart and the last one down to 5. I know I'm just going to turn off and ignore the first four, but get justifiably annoyed enough by the fifth one that I finally get out of bed.

And I'll back it!
